“There are so many great sources of healthy veggie protein, like tofu (not fried), beans, and lentils, that can be seasoned and mixed with vegetables to create savory and filling dishes that would appeal to anyone, vegetarian or not. Kirstie Alley’s vegetarian diet downfall (besides all that butter) was that she lacked balance — enjoy vegetarian enchiladas and bread, but make sure that’s not all you’re eating.”

Well said, Sugar.

The West Coast premiere of Valentino: The Last Emperor, LACMA, Los Angeles, CaliforniaWe have mocked Gwyneth Paltrow more than a few times on her two-faced vegetarianism which has consisted of such acts as saying no to meat publicly, then teaching others to grind turkey patties.

Now, The Spoof, a fictitious news blog, is getting in on the action and has written a hilarious satire where Gwyneth readily admits she hates vegetables and goes to a park in South Africa to eat rhinos.

“Fading actress Gwyneth Paltrow has admitted, after six years of marriage and the same amount of years as a vegetarian, that she does not, in fact, like vegetables.”

“Paltrow claimed her husband took the news surprisingly well and is taking her out for dinner tonight at an all-you-can-eat Game Park in Johannesburg, South Africa.”

“”I’m so hungry I could eat the arse out of a dead rhino!” said Paltrow, licking her lips with glee. Martin had no comment, preferring to simply sulk instead.”

Blossom’s Mayim Bialik Reluctant To Classify Faith And Vegan Diet

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, May 7th, 2009 in Actresses.

Opening Of CavaliaMayim Bialik entertained adolescents in the early 90s on the NBC sitcom, Blossom, with wild looking vintage store outfits, frank discussions about issues like puberty, and a recovering drug addict brother named Joey with an obsessive tendency to use his catch phrase, “Whoa,” one time too many.

Mayim is all grown up now, with a PhD in neuroscience (read about her work on Prader-Willi syndrome) and quite active with her Jewish faith and in the Jewish community. 

She recently interviewed with Jewcy.com, where she admitted it’s hard to classify herself, both faithwise and diet.

“I’m hesitant to label myself or call myself Orthodox because people will be like, “Celebrity Mayim Bialik says she does X, but I saw her doing Y” – I guess, to be safe, I would say I’m Conservative, but in reality, I’d say Conservadox. But my husband and I have definitely increased our observance over the years, and we’re always trying to grow.”

“We kinda do the Big Three [Shabbos, keeping kosher, and family purity], but it’s hard. I mean, it’s hard for everyone to classify themselves, but it’s a whole new level of hard when people are watching you. Like, I pretty much eat a vegan diet, but I eat eggs if they’re in things. What I say is, I eat a mostly vegan diet, and that’s kind of how it is with Judaism. We keep Shabbos, we keep kosher, and I don’t know if people want to hear about the Mikveh, but, um, yeah.”

Kirstie Alley: The Bad Vegetarian

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, May 7th, 2009 in Actresses.

5th Annual TV Land Awards - ShowKirstie Alley is giving vegetarians a bad name.

The actress recently admitted to People magazine that she’s gained 83 pounds after quitting the Jenny Craig diet in 2007. She also become a vegetarian for seven months and ate all the wrong meatless things.

“I can’t tell you how much weight I gained being a vegetarian! A vegetarian would probably be eating vegetables,” Kirstie said.

“But to me being a vegetarian meant I’m going to eat enchiladas with no meat, and I’m going to eat lots of bread, lots of carbs.”

When are these Hollywood actresses going to learn nutrition?

Maybe Bethenny Frankel could teach Kirstie to put some tofu on that bread and make an open faced sandwich. She should try stuffing her enchiladas with low fat beans just as hard as gals try to stuff themselves into a pair of their pre pregnancy jeans after delivery. And stop having hookups with cheese.

Speaking of hookups, Kirstie mentioned she has a “thing” for actor Jamie Foxx.

“I want a booty call with Jamie Foxx — for real. I’ve always had a bit of thing for him.”

Sorry, Kirstie we don’t have dating expertise. We’ll just help you recognize good carbs.
